CHAPTER 33
Last Updated:
2021-06-06 15:44:57The speakers have activated again and the annoying electronic voice of a woman came, telling us to go to the main lobby. And I was expecting for the electronic woman to repeat her words as if we didn't hear it once, as it always does but then Dr. Jhero's voice came, fury was evident on it.
"Fools! Go to the main lobby now and all of you will feel my wrath! Do you think I wouldn't know you are trying to fool me by making a fake antidote and creating another software to control my parasites?! Fuck you all!"
I shuddered as my ears hurt when his voice echoes so loud through the speakers, the others wince as well. When the speakers died, all of us look into one another, as we started to move. Nervousness started to take in, I started to tremble but I bite my lips.
"You can't let nervousness eat you up this time, Rosella." I reminded myself.
And the other me replies, "But he knows! He found out and now he is mad!"

All of us turned from where the voice came from, and everyone's eyes widen when we saw who it was. Dr. Jhero froze in his place and just like us, his eyes widen, surprise was evident on his face, while the man who owns the voice that causes his surprise stands firmly on one spot, looking at him sternly, authority radiating through him. Standing just a few meters away from us is General Silvester Gabriel Richforte Sr., Sean's father, the former chairman of Richforte Memorial Hospital, and Dr. Jhero's college best friend. Behind him is a battalion of the US armed forces, standing, waiting for an order. And standing just beside him is another version of him and Sean, though this one looks older than Sean but younger than dad. And then it hit me. He is General Brigadier Silvester Gabriel Richforte Jr., the firstborn, and eldest, Sean's brother. Realization hits me as a mixture of relief and nervousness floods in me. "Dad, brother," Sean mu

Sean Gabriel Richforte's Point of View If someone will tell me way back that I will be in a situation wherein the world's population is in danger because a crazy doctor creates a parasite that turns people into a zombie, I would probably shake my head, and tell that person is insane. Zombie was just fiction to us, a creature created fictionally, commonly used for Sci-fi books and movies, to gain reads, views, and to add entertainment and spice to the plot. Well, that was before. Because now, the zombies became true and we are experiencing it. Thing is, those who were once close and so dear to us became one, and it was hard to witness it, knowing that anytime, you need to hurt them or even kill them or else they'll be the one to do it to you. I didn't think that this time will come, wherein the world's future is in our hands, and we need to make certain sacrifices to ensure the future. "You are wasting time creating another soft

Sean Gabriel Richforte's Point of View "To delete the main server, you have to make it explode, until the last pieces of it turn to ashes." And that's what exactly we will do, make the main server explode. But as he'd said, certain sacrifices have to be made, and those include lives, and one of those lives includes mine for I am more than willing to sacrifice if it means to ensure the world's future. "No, Sean! Are you out of your mind?!" Of course, my Rosella will not and will never agree with my decision, but she has to understand that I have to do this. I know she's probably thinking that I am being selfish here, not thinking of her feelings if something bad happens to me. But then again, I know her too well. I know she will feel devasted, but she would move on eventually. And she will be one of those people who will work hard to help Earth recover again. The plan is simple, yet full of sacrifices.

Rosella Marie Hawl's Point of View The feeling of excitement, hope, and fear fills the room as dad announces our departure from the facility. They have planned everything, and they know that Dr. Jhero is hiding right now, still planning for his next moves, and they used it to bring us out of this facility. "I just hope this will all be over, for real! I can't wait to come back to my family." "And let us pray for a safe trip back home, as well as our families." Everyone is getting ready to go while I didn't move even a single muscle, knowing what Sean has on his mind. And I couldn't let him do that, although I know I couldn't do anything about it. "Rosella," I came back to my senses when I felt a hand on my shoulder. When I look up, I saw Gabriel, Sean's brother. He has this small smile on his lips while looking at me, and I know he has an idea of what I am thinking right now. He motions his head in a

December 23, 2050 - CREF, Wolfe Creek Crater, Western Australia My heart was filled with hope again as we kiss in front of everyone, amidst the time that was supposed to use for our escape. Public display of affection to the highest level is not something I liked, but I didn't give a damn to anything in the world as of now, and I just give all my attention in our kiss, pouring our affection for each other. When our lips parted we were both catching our breaths as our foreheads were once again pressed together. His other hand traveled down to my tummy and gently pressed his palms on it, feeling it. "Is it true? You're... you're pregnant?" he stammered, and I nodded."H-how..." "Two weeks," I uttered. "I am two weeks pregnant. I just found this out two days ago, my period was one week late, and it never came late before, so I tried a pregnancy test, and it was positive, Sean. I was just waiting for the right time to tell this to y

When someone's mind is set on a goal and is determined to reach that goal, you couldn't do anything for it to back down. A determined heart and mind never back down they say. And Sean is proof of that. Even after knowing that I am pregnant and that we are having a child, he still goes for the plan. He is still more than willing to sacrifice his life for everyone, for us, and our son's generation. It makes me proud and at the same time, devastated. Presently, we are standing at the crater, with the camouflage helicopters around, slowly being filled with medical workers ready to get back to their families. The first batch has flown and is now probably waiting at Darwin's airport. One by one, they left with hearts full of hope and at the same time, melancholy for those who will be left here and ensure the future. But nothing can compare to the pain I am going through right now. I still haven't accepted the fact that I cannot do anything

Captain Axel Welton's Point of View As a soldier, I was always ready and willing to do certain sacrifices just to ensure my comrades' safety, the civilians, our country, and to ensure the success of our mission. That is also one of the reasons why I didn't give interest in romance. Because I know that in my job, I could die anytime. Today, I am again willing to sacrifice my life, and this time, it is not just for the country, but for the whole world. It is not just for the now and my country, but for the future generation and the whole world. But then, I didn't think that I will witness a scene like this, at this time. Normally, when we are on a mission and the situation is between life and death, we would just close our eyes for a moment and utter our silent goodbye if we won't make it alive, wishing it would be carried by the wind to our love ones. But this... It is a scene far from what I expected, far from what I know. And

Hello! If you reach this part, then I love you and thank you for going all the way here. This part is to thank everyone who spent their time and money to read One In A Million, thank you so much! Writing this one wasn't an easy game. I spent three months writing it while classes are ongoing. I've experienced mental blocks and severe headaches several times while going on with the story, but it was all worth it knowing that finally, One In A Million reached its ending. This is my first ever Science Fiction story, and the second novel I finished this year, 2021. I know you see plot holes in it, the grammatical, and typographical errors, and I promise to strive harder to get rid of those and be better in the future. I know I still have to learn a lot and I am more than willing to learn. So, again, thank you, readers, thank you for spending your time and money to read each chapter. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Also, thank you to my fa
One In A Million FINAL CHAPTER
Fifty Years Later... A half-century has pass and the world finally recovered from the immense effect of Dr. Jhero's parasites fifty years ago. With the help of the dead's funds in their bank accounts, we used them to fund the budget needed to reconstruct streets, bridges, city facilities, buildings, villages, and houses. We didn't only focus on reconstructing the said buildings, but we also lend budget for agriculture, and technology remodeling. Sean's inventions helped a lot. A day after we came back to Philadelphia, the video I was referring to was decrypted automatically and it was a message, telling us what he wanted us to do with his inventions. He wanted us to use them as a part of our new beginning, and that's what we did. Though there is more, his creations were named not just his, but there is also my name on it. At the end of his video, he said that he wants our child to take care of his unfinished inventions and use them too to ma

January 1, 2050 - Wolfe Creek Crater, Western Australia The scene wasn't the same when I first saw this place. Sure, it is still isolated, with only big rocks, Acacia, and Eucalyptus trees around, but the whole place looks devastated. The proof of the blast was visible, it became even more eerily isolated. Sure, the crater was large and deep before, but it became larger and deeper now. With just a look, I know it wouldn't be easy to get up once you fall on this big hole and worst, you might die because of the obvious hard bed of huge rocks on it. I know there is no chance of survival in this one, and those people who were left here to sacrifice will be buried underneath this crater forever, including Sean. I sigh when I feel my emotions trying to resurface again. I can't let that happen now. Last night, I promised myself that I won't be an emotional freak anymore. I will strive hard to be a strong individual if I wanted to move

December 31, 2050 - Alice Springs Airport, Australia It has been a week since everything about Dr. Jhero's dirty plan ended, it has been a week since lives have been sacrificed, it has been a week since I lost Sean. On December 25, we celebrated Christmas despite our situation, everyone celebrated to welcome a new start, and a few moments from now, we will celebrate New Year and welcome 2051 as the new era, the restart of the world. For the past few days, dad and the military force has been busy doing rescue search for the others who survived but did not make it with us. There are newcomers, but because Alice Springs Airport is already full, they were transferred to another survivor's facility. And despite the business, dad never forgot to spare some time for New Year's celebration which will happen moments from now. I look at my wristwatch and caress it softly. Aside from the life inside me, this is my remembrance of Sean, one
